HELP!!! '13 Volvo D13 shakes & power loss at 1,600 RPM

Ok...I guess that makes more sense. But you rarely hear of injector failure because cups simply fail before injectors on a D13.

 

@Johny41 at 1.8millon miles only ever had cup failures. I am sitting 1 million and 4 cups 3 injector set.

 

IT doesn't. But he also does not know for sure it's cups or injectors. And water will kill injectors. Cups are generally not the problem after 11 or 12 in the D13. Not say it doesn't happen, but not like it did 8-11.

 

If the cups are bad they need replacing ASAP.
The longer you wait the more chance you have off wrecking every rubber seal in your engine because you can get diesel where you don't want it.

 

Always check the cheap stuff first ! Have you changed the fuel filters ?
Sometimes it is the obvious thing that is the problem !

 

I had a ecm on my truck for awhile that would do that . It was the ecm was programed with a progressive shift program. If you took the rpms over the shift points it cutout and sputtered like you describe. You might have it check for something like that.

 

His truck came with a 13speed Eaton not an Ishift. He needs a proper diagnostics done........period. I described the symptoms of bad cups already and he has not updated us if he has more then 1 symptom. In addition to shifting the D13 at 1700 RPM not much else can be said to help him. Go to the dealer and get it fixed.
